7qt Oil Pan - BBC Gen4 Drag Race

The 7qt Oil Pan - BBC Gen4 Drag Race from Moroso is purpose-built for serious big-block Chevy engine builders and drag racers who demand maximum oil capacity and control during extreme acceleration. This rear-sump design delivers the additional volume needed for sustained high-RPM operation while maintaining proper oil flow and pressure under the violent G-forces of competitive drag racing. Whether you're running a dedicated strip car or a street/strip hybrid, this pan addresses the critical challenge of oil starvation that plagues stock-capacity sumps in modified BBC engines.

Engineered with an 8-inch depth and louvered windage tray, the pan reduces crankshaft churning losses and separates aerated oil from the sump—essential for maintaining film strength at sustained 7000+ RPM. The external pickup tube design allows freedom in sump geometry optimization, while the steel construction with zinc-oxide plating resists corrosion from fuel vapors and moisture inherent in competitive environments. The louvered windage tray isn't cosmetic; it actively prevents turbulence and foaming that degrade lubrication efficiency, a critical consideration when running synthetic oils at extreme temperatures in blown or nitrous applications.

Drag racers, street/strip enthusiasts, and BBC engine builders will recognize this pan as essential insurance against bottom-end failure. The 7-quart capacity provides the safety margin necessary for consistent oil level maintenance across multiple heat cycles and extended dyno sessions. Installation requires compatible BBC engine block and oil pan rails; verify fitment with your specific engine generation and transmission configuration before ordering. At 19.5 lbs, the added weight is negligible compared to the reliability gains in competition or high-output street applications.
